Engineering and Design department

The Design and Engineering Department at N. Schlumberger is staffed by technicians and engineers with expert skills in the fields of mechanical, textile, electrical and electronic engineering. These skills are put to use to develop textile machinery (N. Schlumberger's cornerstone business) as well as for diversification and outsourcing purposes.

Bolstered by its expertise and tradition of innovation, N. Schlumberger's Design and Engineering Department handles every mechanical, electrical, electronic and IT aspect of machine development. In 2000, the Design and Engineering Department began using the CATIA V5 3D CAD software for every aspect of development.

Thanks to the versatility and cross-functional skills of our project teams, we are able to develop new applications and processes, particularly for technical textiles (carbon fibres, etc.). According to our customers' specifications, we design, manufacture, perform initial internal tests, install and monitor machines at their facilities. We also produce all the technical documentation supplied with each machine (wiring diagrams, pneumatic diagrams, spare parts catalogues, users' manuals).
